Gibson SG Standard 61 Maestro Vibrola T Type
(Aged Cherry)
Featuring t-type HumbuckersLooking for a guitar that screams rock 'n' roll with vintage swagger and modern reliability? Feast your eyes — and ears — on the Gibson SG Standard '61 Maestro Vibrola. This axe is a love letter to one of Gibson’s most iconic designs, bringing together the historic style of the early '60s SG with the expressive capabilities of the Maestro Vibrola tailpiece. It’s got the looks, the feel, and the sound that defined a generation.
At the heart of this SG are a pair of T-Type humbuckers, voiced to recapture the clarity, punch, and harmonic complexity of vintage PAFs. Whether you’re chasing crunchy British blues-rock or searing modern lead tones, these pickups deliver with attitude to spare. And with the addition of the Maestro Vibrola, you can add shimmer and shake to your chords and solos without sacrificing tuning stability.
The slim-taper mahogany neck feels lightning-fast in the hand, while the bound rosewood fingerboard with acrylic trapezoid inlays offers smooth playability and classic looks. The lightweight mahogany body resonates with warmth and sustain, and the deep double-cutaway design gives you unrestricted access all the way up the neck — perfect for screaming solos and expressive bends. Finished in a rich gloss nitrocellulose lacquer and adorned with vintage-correct hardware, this SG is more than just a pretty face. It’s a stage-ready, studio-approved tone machine with decades of mojo baked in.
